INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

TUMBLE DRYER

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE

INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE USING
THIS APPLIANCE. KEEP THEM IN A SAFE PLACE FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.

IMPORTANT USER INFORMATION
These notes are provided in the interest of safety.
You must read them before installing or using the
appliance.
–This tumble dryer is intended for NORMAL DOMESTIC
USE ONLY.

- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years
and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning
and user maintenance shall not be made by children without
supervision. Children of less than 3 years should be kept away
unless continuously supervised.

- Adequate ventilation must be provided to avoid back flow of
gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels,
including open fires.

- Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used
for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other
fuel.
–Please note it is not recommended that the dryer is placed
directly next to ovens or cookers as the performance of the
dryer may be affected.
–A carpet must not obstruct the ventilation openings in the
base of the dryer.
–Do not stack the tumble dryer on top of other appliances
without the correct stacking kit.
–Any electrical work required to install the appliance should
be carried out by a qualified person.
–It is important to clean the lint filter after each drying cycle
or the restrictions to airflow will extend drying times and
could cause the safety cut-out to trip.
–Under no circumstances should anything other than the
recommended articles be placed in the tumble dryer.
–The tumble dryer should be serviced by an appointed service
organisation and only genuine parts used.
–It is dangerous to alter or modify the product in any way
other than fitting authorized accessories.
–We recommend that the appliance is unplugged each time
after use. It should always be disconnected from the electricity
supply for long periods (i.e. weekends, if it is to be left
unattended for holidays etc.)
–The rear of the dryer gets quite hot during use. Position the
dryer so that the back is not accessible while in operation, but
ensure that the sides have a space available to allow airflow.

–The special mains cable and plug assembly must only be
replaced with a genuine part by the manufacturer or his service
agents in order to avoid a hazard.

- It is important to clean fluff from the window of the dryer and
around the door seal after each drying cycle. Failure to do so
could result in water leaking.

WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of a
drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread
out so that heat is dissipated.
Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
DO NOT use a two-way adaptor, or extension lead. The dryer
must be connected to its own socket.
DO NOT block the air inlets at the base and side of your
dryer.
DO NOT allow fluff to accumulate around the tumble dryer.
Risk of fire

DO NOT exceed the recommended maximum load.
DO NOT dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer
DO NOT place articles in the dryer if anything other than a

water solution has been used in the cleaning process.

DO NOT attempt to dry dripping wet articles.
DO NOT use the tumble dryer if you suspect that it is

damaged in any way. Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause serious injury. Consult your
local appointed service engineer and insist on genuine spare
parts.

INSTALLATION

Position the tumble dryer so that the plug remains accessible after installation. Do not block the vent at the front or
base of the dryer, as this will impair the working of the machine. This appliance must not be installed behind a
lockable door, a sliding door or a door with hinges on the opposite side to that of the tumble dryer.

TUMBLE DRYER VENTING

Your tumble dryer will release warm, damp air in one of three ways.

1) EXTENDABLE REAR VENTING - A long flexible vent hose is built into the dryer and can be extended

from the large opening at the rear of the machine

2) FIXED REAR VENTING - Venting is through the large opening at the bottom of the rear panel. A separate
extendible vent hose can be attached if desired.

3) FRONT VENTING - This is a special type of dryer which vents through a grille on the plinth. The opening
on the rear panel is blanked off during manufacturing.
Rear vented dryers can be used without a vent hose but not in a confined space. Rear vented machines must
have a vent hose if they are installed under a work surface. To minimise condensation it is preferable to vent
through a vent to outside. This may be through an open door or window. The best solution is to connect the vent
hose to a permanent connection through a wall or a single glazed window.
This is particularly recommended for small, cool rooms. A kit for this purpose is available as an accessory.
Front venting machines must be converted to extendible rear venting before a permanent connection can be
made to the outside.
When using a vent hose, remember the following points:
The vent hose must be at least 10cm (4 ins) in diameter.
No more than three right-angled bends should be allowed when positioning the vent hose.
Do not distort or constrict the vent hose as this will reduce the airflow.
The vent hose must not be shared with other appliances, for example, a cooker hood outlet.

FINAL INSTALLATION

Push the filter into its operating position as shown in
the diagram. If you wish to change the side on which

THE CONTROLS

your door opens, see the instructions on the back
page. Remove any dust by wiping the drum and door
with a damp cloth. Any initial smell of burning will
be caused by dust on the heater and will quickly
disappear.
